How the totals work

Compare over time

A one-time purchase, a yearly license and a site license are hard to compare on their first-year price. Totals over the same number of years, and a cost per student per year, put them side by side.

Try free first

Phones, tablets and computers now include read aloud, dictation, magnification and captions. Try them with the students before paying for a tool that does the same job.

What it is not

No prices are built in and none are recommended. Education discounts, volume pricing and renewal terms change; confirm them with each seller.
